Something Within is a collection of poems, reflections, sketches, illustrations and vignettes from first-time author Nollaig O’Donnell.

A paean to the simple pleasures of life, such as taking solace in friendships and in the beauty of the natural world, Something Within encourages the reader to cultivate asense of gratitude, to share in the mystery of existence and to truly savour life’s defining moments – both large and small.

Nollaig O’Donnell is a native of Ennis, County Clare and now lives in Galway, on the ‘Wild Atlantic Way,’ with her husband, Richard. A teacher of piano, French and English, Nollaig also enjoys sketching and silk painting, as well as writing poetry and reflections – taking inspiration from her everyday life experiences. Her great passion is Taizé, a unique type of prayer, incorporating music, meditation and silence – minting-time for inspiration and creativity! Something Within has been a labour of love and comprises some of Nollaig’s favourite poems, sketches and vignettes. Her wish is that Something Within will resonate with something within you, the reader.
